Default Grid Boxes

I'm trying to create graph paper (one inch square boxes) using excel.
However, excel uses pixels to change row and column widths. I've got real
close but when i print the graph sheets and measure with a ruler its not a
one inch square box. Any ideas how to approach this or how to make one inch
square cells? thanks inadvance.

Any particular reason you need Excel for this, it's freely available online
